06Frequently asked questions

Questions about business legal services

General answers. Your case may have particularities that only an assessment with the lawyer can clarify.

01Can I start setting up a company from another country?

In many cases, assessment and preparation can take place remotely. What is possible depends on the type of company and your case.

02What is the difference between forming a company and registering a trade mark?

Formation creates the company as a legal entity; trade mark registration protects the sign identifying its products or services. They are different steps that can be supported together.

03What does putting business affairs in order mean?

It is the set of steps to put an existing company's legal position in order. It depends on what remains to be resolved.
